Hazfinder review
A focused hazmat marketplace with booking, bidding, verification, and TMS API integration.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Hazfinder is an online load board for hazardous-material transportation in the United States. It connects brokers and carriers through hazmat load posting, search, filtering, direct booking, chat, bidding, and shared team workflows. Brokers can include pickup, delivery, timing, stop, and load details, while carriers can search available shipments and book them through the platform. Companies must maintain valid hazmat registration, and Hazfinder uses manual approval and verification for DOT and MC holders. It is best suited to teams whose freight work is centered on US hazmat loads rather than general freight.
The published plan is a paid monthly subscription with per-user billing and a first month free. It includes unlimited posting and search, an instant chat and bid system, map visualization, team collaboration, customer support, and API integration. That makes the plan relevant for brokers and carriers that need more than a basic listing board, particularly when shared post and search management or system connectivity matters. The pricing structure is straightforward in scope, but the product is not positioned as a permanent free tool.
Hazfinder’s strongest fit is its specialized workflow. Users can combine hazmat load discovery with direct booking, route planning, Google Maps integration, and verification of DOT and MC holders. Its API connects with TMS and internal systems, while team features support collaborative operations. The trade-off is a narrow market focus and web-only access, with no mobile apps listed. Choose Hazfinder for a dedicated US hazmat workflow with booking and integration needs; consider a broader load board for mixed freight or mobile-first operations.
